Glad to see it worked out :)

When I went Haks and Arthur were very helpful. End result I didn't need everything I asked, so they saved me a few bob (where they could have done it anyway when I didn't need the changes and charge me).

Good exhaust note too

Chris from Best mufflers over at Carlton does some pretty good work, seen alot of his work on old ford's and holdens that have been awesome. He does do imports to, yet I've mainly seen his work on old muscle

http://www.hitechmufflers.com.au/ is where the exhaust on my car came from when I bought it. I only found out because by chance we took it back to them to get a screamer pipe plumbed back in but can't fault their work. It's in Darlinghurst as well so a bit closer too.

Just for future people who search this topic.

I just went to Carline Mufflers in Mt Druitt and spoke with Bruno. He and his team did a good job with my FG, looked after the car and reasonably priced. I'd go back there.

also recommend Bruno.

The only issue I had with the shop was they don't work with 4".

3.5 max.

And for my power goals back then, I required the 4.

New fabricator for me, Impossible Fabrication at Moorebank.

Used them for the track 180sx and very happy with the job, fast, decent priced and great to deal with.

Just dropped off my shit box R33 for a 3.5" dump and modding my cat to 3.5" also no more screamer :(

I had read that from your earlier post but forgot to ask today if they work with 4" now. I just got a 3" middle section made up with a resonator for a little more Barra noise.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
